“Ethereum Mining Casper”

“Ethereum Mining Casper”

April 20, 2015

Where it says YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS, use the address you created in step 9 (you’ll need to put “0x” in front of it). The “Miner01” following your address can be changed to any friendly label that you want to give your miner (only important if you plan to run multiple rigs).
For the 12/13 GPU mining rigs, the best motherboard to use is a ASRock H110 Pro BTC (Windows can only support 12 AMD GPU’s at the same time, you can combine 12 AMD + 6 Nvidia GPU’s but it’s not worth it, there are some 19+ Motherboards, but from personal experience you will have problems with them, so better stick to 6 or 12 GPU Mining Rigs)
This guide is magnificent, and easy to follow. Are there any good alternatives for storing ether? I’m mining at 26 MHS, and poloniex will not update my balance until i’ve mined 1 ethereum total, that might be a while.
Payouts on Nicehash are minimum 0.1BTC four times per day. It’s also important to note that nicehash is approximately 20% less overall hashrate, but the switching feature may allow you to be more profitable than if you were to simply mine Ethereum.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for certain types of damages. Therefore, some of the above limitations in this section may not apply to a user. In particular, nothing in these terms shall affect the statutory rights of any user or exclude injury arising from any willful misconduct or fraud of Stiftung Ethereum.
There are rumors on the internet that Bitmain is working on yet another cryptocurrency mining hardware unit. While that in itself is not spectacular by any means – especially because it is the company’s business model – this latest venture would focus on Ethereum ASIC mining. Although it remains to be seen if there is any truth to these rumors, the prospect of an Ethereum ASIC mining unit is quite interesting, for obvious reasons.
Going back to the analogy of real-world mining, in cryptocurrency mining you can use different tools to find the gold, so-called mining software. Each mining software has evolved over the years, but some have developed more than others. The primary contenders for Ethereum mining are Claymore and Genoil.
Für das Homemining sind fünf Faktoren wichtig: die Mininghardware, die Hashleistung, die Difficulty, der Stromverbrauch und der Ether-Verkaufspreis. Neben einem voll funktionsfähigen Rechner, benötigt ein Miner leistungsfähige Grafikkarten zur Berechnung der Hashes. Je leistungsfähiger die Grafikkarten sind, desto höher ist auch die Hashleistung.
Nvidia GPU’s CANNOT be bios moded, which makes them a bit easier to setup. For them it’s best to only use MSI Afterburner to overclock and limit their power draw. The downside is that you can’t get the maximum out of them, cause we can’t replace the memory timings.
(5) Install Overclock Tool: MSI Afterburner as the overclock setup and monitor. The following shows an optimal overclock settings for Nvidia GTX 1070 GPU, which produce 30 MH/s, 100 Watt power draw, 61C temperature with 40% fan speed.
(Update: Bitcoin Core is less usable as money due to much higher fees and delayed transaction times. The Core team has also expressed an interest in keeping these fees high since they view BTC as a “store-of-value” and not something to be transacted on a daily basis. In contrast, Bitcoin Cash’s transaction fees cost pennies and payments can be validated even with zero confirmations. These facts make BCH the ideal cryptocurrency for sending and receiving money anywhere in the world.)
If you’re running a lot of GPUs (4+), additional tweaks might be necessary to ensure that they’re all recognized by the OS. Exact tweaks vary by motherboard, but setting the PCIe speed to Gen1 is usually a good place to start. No need to change anything now, but make a mental note that you may need to come back and play around a bit if all of your GPUs don’t show up in the OS later.

The concept behind cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and Bitcoin is that individuals generate and transfer them, without the reliance on any central authorities like governments or traditional banks. The appeal of cryptocurrency, at least in part, is that you can use a standard PC for mining. Ethereum, as well as many other cryptocurrencies, use memory hard-hashing methods, which is why having one of the best mining GPUs with a decent amount of graphics memory is needed.
Da beim Bitcoin Netzwerk, alle 2016. Blöcke oder alle zwei Wochen, die Difficulty angepasst wird, könnte man kurzzeitig, wenn die Rechenleistung sich verändert, mehr Gewinn mit Mining erzielen. Da jedoch die Difficulty im Blockchain Netzwerk variabel ist, wird diese je nach festgelegter Periode, der Rechenleistung im gesamten Netzwerk entsprechend, angepasst.
Insgesamt 192 verschiedenen Mining Rechner findet man auf CoinWarz. Wer zuerst unsicher ist, für welche Währung er sich beim Mining entscheiden soll, der kann sich an den nackten Zahlen probieren. Funktionsweise ist identisch, einfach die Eingabefelder mit Hashrate, Stromkosten und Wattleistung ausfüllen und die Gewinnzone errechnen. Alle Preisangaben sind ebenfalls in USD angegeben.
The rationale behind Ethash “is that the most costly operation in the algorithm is not the hashing function, but rather the input/output operation of reading from memory. Because most regular personal computers are already optimized for input/output operations, it should be increasingly hard or expensive to create hardware that would speed up the mining process considerably.”
We’re specifically mining on an MSI Z270 XPOWER Gaming Titanium motherboard powered by an Intel Core i5-7600K quad-core processor and 16GB of Corsair Vengeance 2666MHz RAM. It’s more muscle than any miner needs and will surely gobble up a bit more power while mining than is desired. But it’s the simplest of systems we have on hand that’s ready to mine 24/7. CPU horsepower is much less important in a mining rig, so low-power CPUs are preferable at this time.
Noch ist die Difficulty-Bomb von Ethereum kaum sichtbar. Seit Anfang des Jahres steigt der Preis der zweitwertvollsten Kryptowährung kontinuierlich an, und mit ihm auch die Hashrate der Miner sowie, naturgemäß, auch die Difficulty.
This will take you to the first screen to login to the miner. In the case of the S9 the login box that comes up the username is root and the password is root. Once you have logged in you will see the system overview. We suggest you go to the Admin tab first and change the password to one of your own choosing. Your next step is to go to the Miner Configuration tab. This is where you will add your information for the mining pool you will want to mine on.
The main part of the mining hardware is the graphics processing unit (GPU). Here is a link to a site that allows you to compare the different GPUs – http://www.mininghwcomparison.com/list/index.php?brand=both . Type “Ethereum” in the filter.
Important: The combination of the password you just used to create this address *and* the associated encrypted key file is what gives you control over your new wallet address. If you lose either of these, you’ve also lost control of your wallet and all of the coins associated with it—and there is literally nothing that anyone will be able to do to help you. Remember your password, and keep multiple backups of your key file(s)!
so this “long lasting ecosystem through the development of a inclusive community of entrepreneurs, developers and investors” … excludes me because I’m not an “investor” with cash upfront? or because the time I spend developing goes to… I don’t know, paying my rent?
MinerGate allows you to mine with either your CPU or GPU or even both, you can also choose how many cores you want your CPU/GPU to use. This allows you to regulate the heat and electricity produced by your hardware, allowing it to have a greater life-span.
Before you start mining, update your graphics driver. Our two Radeon RX 480s are using the Crimson ReLive 17.6.1 driver which can be downloaded directly from AMD. Several sources on the web are claiming that older drivers can reach better hash rates, but we could not substantiate this at all.
